I read the discription and rules for the race and it looks pretty cool. $500 max for the car including upgrades, one car gets destroyed after 12 hours, winner gets $1500 in nickles. I would love to do something like this. the homepage is www.24hoursoflemons.com

This is actually a pretty cool topic to discuss. I know a number of people that compete in the LeMons events nationwide, and have even hleped with a car for one many years ago. That particular link to an article isn't really advertising as such, as I know that site and that's not how they operate. This is more of a link of interest, so I think it should remain, unlike so many spammers here.

Trying to build content, even if some of the threads are a couple years old. (and when you get rid of spam threads, it's all you really have left... sad but true)

Haha, I love the pic of the limo, the driver looks so casual, reminds me of Peter Brock!
